Better Seeding Needed
American AgriculturLs,

There is too much hsp-hazard work
connected with seeding to grass. There
should be more effect az permanency
more painstaking in preparing tho soil
and putting in the seed. To secure a
good grass crop, this should be the only
crop expected from the land, Glover
and timothy will do well sowu in the early
spring with wheat or rye, but most other
grasses will not do we'll with any grain
crop. and should be put in as early as
possible in the spring as an entire crop.
The growth of the finer grasses Is slow
al first, as they come up with only tiny
shoot. and the spread Of root and foliage
TO the full extent really takes two years.
The seed il more costly and greater
amount required; hence it car not be
done so often, but if well done it pays
in the end. Plenty of fine manure should
be prepared, to be narrowed in with the
seed, and in its absence, from 200 20 500
mounds of superphos phate, or other re-
liable concentrated fertilizer, should be
snread over an an acre. There Is no
Mace whore these kinds of manure will
pay better.
GOOD mixture of seed, sown broad
cast both ways, is two bushels orchard
Grass two bushels of blue grass, two
bushels of redtop and one 6ushel OF
meadow fescue, to be covered with a good
brush harrow. The surface of the ground
should be made smooth, free from Jumps
and clods, and in light and friable con
alton. To get it in this form, the mar
row and the roller should be used freely.
IA field seeded down in this
way with plenty Of seed should
Weld good return for years

A Sham CrnM.

NilllalhsppIh " ~ NfhAcANVt
Engineer jack Ellis, of the Philadel-
phia and Reading railroad, is the owner
of a crow that, judging from its present
appearance, has grown as large as any
crow can possibly grow. He Is two feet
in length from the tip of his beak TO the
end of his tail, the beak alone being
larger than that of full grown bald
eagle. He was captured at Beach Creek,
Clinton county, Pa, in somewhat novel
way. He flew against a telegraph wire
with such force that he was thrown to the
ground badly stunned. A telegraph OPP
orator picked him up, and aiter nursing
him into good condition again, sent him
to Mr.. Ellis as a present, With a clipped
wing he roams over the garden grounds
connected with the Ellis residence on West
Front street. Like nil accomplished corn
field inspectors, whose natural duty Is that
of lifting grains of corn from the
ground, ii they have not been planted
deep enough, he has scientific knowl-
edge of thievery. A shepherd dog chain
ed 10 a kennel in the yard Is one of his
worst victims. Whenever he sees canine
gnawing a bose be sneaks up behind him
and seizes him by the tail; the sudden
and unexpected attack causes the dog to
Quickly wheel about to find what's there,
bat the crow holds on and goes around
with the tail TO where the coveted bone Is,
snatches it up and runs of with the SWIFT
ness OF q deer.

Profit in Oats.
American Agricuitutist

Many farmers say there is no profit in
raising oats, yet others find them a
profitable cror. If the market price of
the grain is not profitable, the price paid
for your stock always is. The farmer
who sells oats and feeds his calves, pigs,
lambs and colts all corn, or nearly so,
makes a mistake. Not few men find
oats Improbable because they do not get
the full value of the straw. If oats are
cut five days earlier than Is the common
practice, the straw is worth for feeding
two thirds of its weight OF timothy hay,
ana this earlier cutting increases, rather
than diminishes, the value of the grain.
OF course the straw must be kept bright.
If it is not cut until it is dead ripe" and
then piled up after threshIng to bleach
and rot, it is not worth much for feed.
But the cutting, curing aud feeding be-
ing equally favorable, three pounds Of
oat straw are worth as much for winter
feeding as two pounds of hay. True,
the other articles fed must have more al
bumineids than when hay is fed, but this
does not increase the cost of the ratio.
The biggest price for oats is realized by
cutting the crop when most farmers
would pronounce it green, curing 1t nice
ly. then store in NOW or under barracks,
and feed grain and straw together after
running through a cutter and moisten-
ing. Cutting oats little early, also re
duces the chances of their lodging. and
their liability to lodge is the most serious
objection to them by farmers who have a
soil rich in nitrogen and rather deficient
in SILICA very popular soil FOR all
Grains

The Orlgln of Cinderelln.

There is no fairy tale that is better
known or more loved by young readers
than the story of the poor LITTLE cinder
wench, who was so ill treated by her
cruel sisters, had such delightful god
mother, with a magic band, and was so
lucky as to lose her pretty glass slippers
only to gain a prince, and become prin-
cess thereby.
Looking over an old book, we came
upon an anecdote that it said to haze
Cinderellas real name, il seems, was
Rhodope, and she was beautiful Egyp-
tian maiden, who lived go years before
the birth of Christ, and during the reigh
of Psammetticus, one of the twelve kings
OF Egypt. One day Rhodope yentured
TO go in bathing IN a clear stream near
her home and meanwhile left her shoes,
which must have been unusually small,
lying on the bank. An eagle, passing
above, CHANGED TO catch sight of them lit
tie sandals, pounced down and carried
off one in his beak.
The bird then unwittingly played the
part of fairy god mother, for, flying di-
rectly over Memphis, where King Pam
meticus was dispensing justice, it let the
shoe fall right into the kings lap. Its
size, beauty, and deintiness immediately
attracted the royal eye, and the king, de
termined upon knowing the wearer of
so cunning a shoe, sent throughout all
his kingdom in search of the foot that
would ht it. As in the story OF Gin
derella, the messengers finally discovered
Rhodope, fitted on the shoe, and carried
her in triumph to Memphis where she be-
came the queen of King Psammeticus,
and the foundation of the fairy tale chat
was to delight boys and girls twenty four
hundred Years later.
